 The molar mass of CaC2​ is 64 g/mol.


 64 kg (or  64000 g) of CaC2​= 64000 g64 g/mol​= 1000 mol .


1000 moles of CaC2​= 1000 moles of C2​H2

1000 moles of C2​H2​= 1000 moles of C2​H4


The molar mass of C2​H4​ is 28 g/mol.


1000 moles of C2​H4​= 1000 mol× 28 g/mol= 28000 g or 28 kg.


 28 kg of C2​H4​ will give 28 kg of polythene.
